In the APC jetblue link, it says Application window open, I am doing something wrong I don't see any FO position, is the window close?. In addition, can someone tell me how to insert the "end date" on my work experience?

Cheers

The application window is now closed. APC hasn't been updated.

But that'll might change later in the year. They dont exactly keep me in the loop on these things.

As far as the app window, keep checking the "work here" link on the website and also the forum. Im sure someone will post here when the app window opens again, so have your stuff ready to go.

Hope this helps.
Thank you very much for this info! Much appreciated!

Yeah most of my time is military, and from what I've been reading that seems to raise the stakes a bit in my favor.

Most of the guys in my class were in the 3000 to 7000 range. Half of those had either 1000 jet PIC, Airbus 320 time, or Emb 175 time. The other half were high time regional and fractional FO's with ATP's.

Can anyone in recent classes advise when the selection of aircraft and bases are provided, as well as how we are allowed to pick? Is it the typical from oldest in class to youngest?
And I aoplogize fr this next question, I understand many variables affect tis but whatseems to be the general time frame for reserves and line holders with aircraft and base? For example, the bus in JFK as opposed to BOS, or EMB in Jfk to Bos?
Any input appreciated, just trying to get a feel...Thanks
Those who start on 19th feel free to PM, look forward to meeting everyone.

Aircraft and base assignments are awarded according to your age in the class. Seems like the growth bases are BOS and JFK in that order.

To give you an idea of how things are moving on the 190, the first two classes (September and October) are line holders in February. Not every single person, but many.

Choose a base where you don't mind sitting reserve and can commute to easily.
